LETTER: Traffic patrol trio important to schools

As the school year comes to a close, I should like to thank everyone involved in helping our children achieve their greatest potential ... from the teachers who spend hours with them each week to the office staff, the administration and our school boards.

Five days each week, I take two of my grandchildren to school at Oakland Middle School. There are three ladies I particularly wish to recognize. They are the crossing guards on DeJarnette Lane, one at DeJarnette and Oakland Drive, one at DeJarnette and Cushing and the other at the driveway exiting OMS. This is a particularly congested area as there are three schools adjoining each other and another just down the street on DeJarnette. They are there rain, shine, sleet and snow. Thank you, ladies, for keeping our children safe and traffic flowing. Yours is truly an important and difficult job and you do it exceptionally well.
